people's growth is a process of constantly learning habits. Gradually get used to singing and dancing; get used to harmony and stability; get used to protesting and condemning. As a result, there are more and more high-rise buildings on the land, and fewer and fewer monuments. However, everyone lives like this. Yesterday, when I was playing basketball with some foreign friends, I lost a rebound. The 1.9-meter Xiongtai shouted at me: Man! Fight for the ball! My little heart beat like that. Then, when I hit the winning shot, my buddy came over to meet me and said, Thank you! The little heart beat again. I would love to say, this is unscientific; no such thing; this is in China. However, when you think about it, yes, on the court, that ball deserves a Fight for. So, on the battlefield, in life, what is worth fighting for? On the court, victory is something to be thankful for. Then in war and in life, what standard should be used to decide whether to meet with the eyes or to be right?
Talking about the movie
When watching "The Expendables", some people said with emotion that this may be the last time this group of old people dedicated their knives, guns and muscles to the world on the screen. But obviously, we dare not say that because you can't know what else this 66-year-old guy named Sylvester Stallone will do. Maybe you're used to his drooping eyes and slurred pronunciation. But did you know that just two months ago, the 66-year-old lost his 36-year-old son. In the past, Stallone had a very smooth face, but now he prefers to have a beard of the king. Looking at Stallone now, I feel that he prefers to deliberately curl his mouth and raise his head, just like in the song, not listening to fate. So I felt that this man was too old to look like.
The movie is still the style where there is no need for a reason to fight, so don't say it if you can fight. So the climax of the movie starts from the second second.
Watching such a movie, I can't stop thinking about it, tsk tsk, it's like seeing someone I haven't seen for a long time. So I felt that Stallone was probably a barber all his life, and he didn't change his hairstyle very much in his life. And Bruce Willis must have a very diligent barber, otherwise the bald head would not be so bright. That Schwarzenegger should not be able to hire a hairdresser recently, because looking at his hairstyle is simply going to sleep and go straight to filming.
When watching "Let the Bullets Fly"; watching three big bosses eating at a table, the camera kept revolving around the three big bosses, I felt in a trance, so there is such a scenery in the world. Now look at these three big men holding a big gun, with their legs crossed, without blinking or turning their heads, they just kill them like a bang dong dong. Vaguely, where have I seen them? Well, these men are so old.
There are a few more faces in the second part. Before Booker appeared, there was a classic soundtrack from the western film "The Bad and the Bad". I thought it was 82-year-old Clint Eastwood who was about to come out, and his little heart jumped again inexplicably. It's a pity that the 72-year-old Chuck Norris who played against Bruce Lee in "The Raptors". Perhaps, these people together are really enough for you to stand on the cusp and live another five hundred years.
In the movie, Schwarzenegger said, Lao Tzu is out of bullets. I will be back! Bruce Willis said, you always come back, this time it's my turn to come back. Schwarzenegger said, you will die. Yes, they will die and be forgotten. Just like in the hearts of young people today, Takeshi Kitano will never be as attractive as Takuya Kimura; Akira Kurosawa will never be mentioned like Shunji Iwai. But I am a nostalgic person. I will always remember Takeshi Kitano, who was paralyzed with half of his face, and Akira Kurosawa who stood in the paddy field in the winter and said to "wait for the clouds". In this movie, the big guys laugh at themselves, everyone should go to the museum. For me, just put the big guys in the hard drive, plus a dust lock, and lock it for ten thousand years.
Too old to look good
Madonna is too old to look good, Hepburn is old to look good. Jackie Chan is too old to look good, and Jet Li is old to look good. Mao Zedong was too old to look good, and Zhou Enlai was too old to look good. Prince Philip is too old, Queen Elizabeth is too old.
And some people, because they're gone, you can't imagine how they got old. How can Diana grow old; how can Leslie Cheung grow old?
Maybe when you were young, you didn't think so, but maybe one day, you would look in the mirror and ask: I can't imagine, how could such a thing happen to me? The mirror will ask back: What? You will say so naturally: Getting Old.
Chen Danqing said that Mr. Lu Xun has a good look, which is really good. Duras said in "The Lover": "I know you, and I will always remember you. You were very young at that time, and everyone said you were beautiful. Now, I am here to tell you, for me, I feel You are more beautiful now than when you were young, when you were a young woman, and I love your vicissitudes of life more than your appearance then." But Yeats' "When You Are Old" ends like this: By the fence, you bent down and whispered, with a shallow sadness. How love is gone, how to walk up the mountains, how to hide your face among the stars.
This is a topic. It's just that some people are too old to look good, too old to be shriveled, too old to be confused. As people get older, they will attach great importance to some more real things. I saw the sadness in Stallone's eyes when Billy was killed. Will it feel like he himself lost his son? Why do those who deserve to live the most die, and those who deserve to die live? Stallone was smoking under the dim light, Yu Nan asked if he remembered him. He said, always. He said that was his way of dealing with death. Life is worth fighting for. I remember Dumpty Sam in The Lord of the Rings saying, I think I probably understand the people in those stories, they had the opportunity to give up, but they chose to persevere. There is always some good in this world that is worth fighting for. If you choose to persevere, will you occasionally think of Gaddafi, who had the opportunity to escape but chose to retreat to his hometown of Sirte after the fall of Tripoli? Then, you will see someone who looks old and looks good. At least compared to Chavez, Gaddafi looks old.
There
are so few things in this world that are very precious: the smile of a child; the tears of a hero; the shyness of a master; the return of a prodigal son.
The so-called heroes are just current events. However, history has always been like this, both frivolous and ruthless. You see how charming Qingshan is, but Qingshan may not expect how boring you are. I love you if you don't want it, it's just old. People in China don't talk about death; if you insist on talking about it, they will cut you off in the tone of Confucius: If you don't know life, how can you know death? But if I ask back: If you don't know death, how can you know life? Life and death, the egg lays the chicken, or the chicken lays the egg? roll! So people get old without knowing it.
In China, in the parks I walk through every morning, people in their 50s and 60s walk birds and play cards and fart each other. But looking at the 66-year-old Stallone, holding a fist the size of a sandbag, he fought for his life, and every blow had a solid response. Watching such a movie, you will feel that everything you see has really happened. No nonsense, no detours, just a fist as big as a sandbag. Stand and make money.
People always talk about freedom. But I see people can't wait to find a place to put themselves in captivity. A square office; a square cubicle; a square life. Then yell, Freedom! So I know that people are born to avoid freedom; and like to be chosen. How do you know what to eat at night without a choice? If there is no choice you know who to marry? Freedom doesn't exist; even if there is, it's just the freedom to choose whether to eat Sanxian noodles or beef noodles at night.
After all, when you are old, can you still eat one chicken and two liters of rice every day like Lian Po?
I hope "The Expendables" goes on like this, and if I can, I hope I can see these people again: Steven Seagal; Harrison Ford; Kevin Costner; if God has mercy, Jackie Chan is okay too... …
